This victory now brings Kenosha\u2019s current win streak to six games, which is the largest in the entire Northwoods League.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Trent Palmer (Jacksonville) got his second start of the season for the Kingfish on Sunday. He earned his first win of the season for his impressive effort of 5.1 innings, allowing two runs on five hits and striking out six. His ERA on the season is a fantastic 1.35. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In relief for Palmer was Brent Villasenor (University of Chicago), one of the newer additions to the Kingfish rotation. He also had a very solid performance, going 2.2 innings allowing no runs on two hits and striking out four. His outing lowered his ERA to 3.86. After Villasenor was Colton Gordon-Zimring (Florida) who ended the game by pitching the ninth. He made quick work of the Growlers, allowing only one single hit in the inning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For the Growlers, they put Jack Nelson (Boston College) on the mound to begin the game. He got knocked around by the Kingfish offense, giving up six runs through his 5.1 innings. Two of the three homeruns for the Fish were off of Nelson, leading to his second loss of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Luke Boyd (Baylor) was next up for the Growlers, pitching one inning and giving up two runs on five hits. Next up was Dakota Roberts (Northwood) who went the eighth inning, allowing no runs on two hits. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An incredible outburst from the Kingfish offense helped lead the way for the six run victory, starting in the second inning with a solo homerun from catcher Evan McDonald (Fairleigh Dickinson). That was his only hit of the night, but he added another RBI on a sacrifice fly. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another standout performance was from Shane Shifflett (Florida) who went 3-5 on the night, including a two-run homerun in the third inning. He had two more singles and also scored twice. The last homerun of the night was also a two-run bomb, this time from Jack Yalowitz (Illinois). His night ended with the line of 2-4 including his fourth double of the summer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Kingfish keep their momentum going by increasing their league leading win streak to six. They are atop the South Division standing for the second half, winning their first five since the midway point. The Growlers are intown Monday night, with the Fish hungry for another win at 7:05.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8212;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Kenosha Kingfish are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
